Yeah they will be but I don't think it uses 9 buses does it? 7 if I'm right. Believe the PVR of the 6 and 12 is only 11 (I believe) so there's more than enough there to cover the 57 aswell (or 25 either).
There's also 8310 - 8318 and 5377 - 5379 which don't really have a route either but they'll be enough to do the 67/69 and whatever else needs a bus and act as spares when needed. Believe that's every route covered without any use for the 09 plates - which are only Euro 4 so the worst buses in the fleet now (bar the last 3 which got Euro 6 mods guessing as a spare somewhere, CLS no doubt).
